Birmingham City will face Wrexham on April 12, 2026, at St Andrew’s, with the match kicking off at 12pm. This encounter raises the question: Can Wrexham regain momentum in their Championship play-off push against a struggling Birmingham side?
Wrexham is looking to bounce back after a disappointing 5-1 loss to Southampton, which saw them drop out of the top six. Phil Parkinson, Wrexham’s manager, has emphasized the need for his team to respond positively to this setback, stating, “We need to ensure that the defeat does not define our season.” In contrast, Birmingham City has not won in their last four games, further complicating their own playoff aspirations.
The last head-to-head match between these two teams ended in a 1-1 draw, but Birmingham has maintained an unbeaten record against Wrexham in their past three encounters. Birmingham’s recent form shows only two wins, six losses, and two draws in their last ten league games, indicating a challenging period for the club.
On the other hand, Wrexham has performed better recently, with five victories, three defeats, and two draws in their last ten league matches. This form is crucial as they aim to re-establish themselves in the playoff contention.
Both teams are backed by American owners who successfully delivered promotion from League One last season. Birmingham’s confirmed lineup includes goalkeeper James Beadle and Bright Osayi-Samuel, while Wrexham will feature Arthur Okonkwo in goal and Max Cleworth in defense.
The match will be available for fans to watch live on Sky Sports, with radio coverage provided by talkSPORT 2. As the teams prepare for this important clash, the outcome remains uncertain, and details about potential injuries or last-minute changes are yet to be confirmed.
